Wing Commander Clive Vernon Beadon DFC (15 April 1919 – 14 September 1996) was a British dowser, diplomat, and officer in the Royal Air Force.

[4][5] Against his father's wishes, he declined acceptance to Sandhurst, instead choosing to train as a pilot at the Royal Air Force College Cranwell.

[4] Later that year he was transferred to Southeast Asia, where he flew Consolidated B-24 Liberator and Vickers Wellington bombers in hundreds of missions against the Japanese.

[9][4] Beadon kept the engines of his aircraft running while his air force colleagues covered the king's head with a blanket and dragged him on board while he protested.

[4] In February 1965 Beadon married Scottish heiress and socialite Jane Corby Whigham, the widowed stepmother of Margaret Campbell, Duchess of Argyll,[2] at Carlton Hall in London.

[2][13] A renowned dowser,[14] Beadon established a research program in 1979 to use "powerful magnetic energy" of natural gemstones to "rebalance all disruptions caused by geopathic stress".
